The summer Olympics start tomorrow in Beijing, and to celebrate, we, with a little help from New York Magazine (Dear NYMag--I quote you all the time. Please hire me), will present you with this list of sports that aren't in the Olympic games...but should be.
-Flonkerton: Invented by Pam, of Office fame, Flonkerton is a race in which competitors run with full boxes of office paper attached to their feet. Medals are rewarded in the form of yougurt can lids--gold, silver, and blue.
-Baseketball: From the stoner hit, Baseketball, by Trey Parker and Matt Stone, the geniuses who brought us South Park. Baseketball, a hybrid of baseball and basketball contains aspects of both games with a twist--defensive players sole responsibility is to distract the offensive team from scoring points in any way they can. It gets creative and frequently involves nudity.
-Flip Cup/Beer Pong/Beirut: Could a more engaging game with higher stakes possibly even exist? AMERICAAAAAA BRO!
-Quidditch:Last, but certainly not least. The excitement! The terror! The broomsticks! The wizardry! Go Gryffindor! (Click for a full set of Quidditch rules)
What do you think? Which of these games would you most like to see in the Olympics?
